Roni - I wonder if it's this:

Mac OS X 10.5: Home directory missing from Users folder

Issue or symptom:

Your Home folder may not appear in the Users folder in Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard.

Products affected:
Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard

Solution:

Don't worry, your home directory has not been deleted. To resolve this issue:

Open Terminal (in /Applications/Utilities)
Type this command, followed by Return:

chflags nohidden ~/

After the command completes, you should be able to view your Home in the Finder.

This document will be updated as more information becomes available.

Note: [Clicking on the "Home" link in the above paragraph says one's desktop is affected by this issue.]
